Kids Academy Preschool is located in a quiet street in Glenmore Park. Within close vicinity to the local Primary schools many of our children build close relationships, learn and grow with their peers through to Kindergarten.

We incorporate a highly active and stimulating preschool room as well as a pre kindy room allowing the children to build on their individual development for the following year in the preschool room.

The staff monitors, nurtures and plans to extend every child’s developmental achievements by observing, documenting and planning on the weekly programming. Our qualified staff are trained in using the Early Years Learning Framework and incorporate this throughout the day to day running of the room.

When enrolling at Kids Academy Preschool the teachers create a Kids Academy Preschool portfolio for your child. These portfolios capture special moments and daily activities of the children throughout their time at the centre. In the preschool room the children also create and decorate their own personal portfolio which is incorporated into the school readiness program.

The large outdoor area has secure perimeter fences with remarkable equipment and shade. The large open sandpit is a communal area for our children. With a range of developmental equipment and a large area to explore the outdoor area is definitely a wonderful place to discover.

 At the end of your child’s day you can watch a PowerPoint presentation in your child’s room showing a wonderful recollection of the day’s events.

 Our team at Kids Academy would love to meet and show families what we offer at this delightful centre.

Kids Academy Preschool Philosophy

Early childhood education is an active process. Children learn most readily through their interaction with the physical and social environments relevant to them at the time. Education emerges from the child's desire to satisfy their natural curiosity and urge to learn. This motivation to learn affects the quality and quantity of their learning.

We aim to provide a friendly and welcoming environment for children and parents, where children are encouraged and respected. Our program seeks to assist children to understand the environment that continually influences their lives. It will foster the growth of positive attitudes and values towards learning. Each child will be treated as an individual with the program focusing on the development of the whole child through a balanced curriculum in all developmental areas including:

• The Healthy, Active & Physical Child - fine and gross motor skills
• The Thinking, Investigating, Exploring, Problem-solving Child - thinking, problem-solving and decision making skills
• The Social Child - responsibility, friendship, trust and affection for others
• The Communicating Child - communication and comprehension skills
• The Feeling Child - self-esteem, confidence and expression of feelings
• The Creative Child - expression of ideas, understanding and recognition of problems
• The Spiritual & Moral Child - respect for the natural environment and livings things, appreciation of beauty in its many manifestations and a sense of what if fair and just

The program will include a variety of activities within these areas to cater for each child's individual needs, strength, interests and experience. To accommodate indidual learning styles. a diverse range of teaching methods will be utilized. These include free discovery situations, child initiated and directed activities, as well as teacher initiated and assisted experiences. Each child will be listened to, guided, encouraged and challenged to promote learning and self worth. Each child will be treated as an equal participant of our society. Children will be encouraged to accept others individuality and respect differences in cultures, attitudes, abilities and gender.

The centre will offer a safe, caring, non-threatening learning environment that promotes the children's well-being through open communication with families and support of individual needs, cultures and an anti-bias curriculum which is challenging, stimulating and educationally balanced. Parent and family involvement and communication is welcomed and valued. We aim to provide parents with and encourage involvement in a wide range of activities and experiences within the centre and wider community. A link between families, the centre and staff and community creates a balanced and informed curriculum. Families are encouraged to share their culture and traditions within the centre community where they will be respected as an important part of children's lives and learning. Staff are valuable resources, their input into the centre is valued and respected. Staff are encouraged to pursue their professional goasl and development and their culture and life experiences are valuable resources to be utilized to enrich our service.
